From: yaro137 on 22 Jul 2010 12:07 Not sure if this is the right group for my question as the problem actually occurs in a branch office that runs Server 2k8 standard on a member server but the DC in the head office runs SBS2k8. While the VPN link goes down users can't access shared folders on the server even though they can log on. Does it have something to do with GPOs? yaro

Or improve the reliability of the SBS server connectivity, which would be the preferred choice. -- /kj
